内容説明
This study breaks new ground by looking at the words of Churchill in his writing and speeches and by focusing on his language over his six decades in the House of Commons, especially in his speeches there recorded in Hansard and his crucial speeches during the crisis of 1940. The method is to analyze or read closely the language of Churchill, particularly in the texts of his speeches, but also in contexts, including the responses to him by and the exchange with his fellow Members of Parliament. Churchill, who won the Nobel Prize in Literature, is a figure key to the history of the world and not simply in Britain, the Commonwealth and the United States. Churchill, like Shakespeare, is a master of language, a controversial figure who was all too human, but someone who stood up for freedom and democracy and against tyranny and totalitarian regimes. His words helped to shape the world and preserved liberty.
